World War II
WORLD WAR II
It seems that a young blonde man volunteered for military service
during World War II. Despite being blonde, he had such a high aptitude
for aviation that he was sent right to Pensecola skipping boot camp.
The very first day at Pensecola he solos and is the best flier on
the base. All they could do was give him his gold wings and assign him
immediately to an aircraft carrier in the Pacific.
On his first day aboard he took off and single-handedly shot down
6 Japanese Zeroes. Then climbing up to 20,000 ft. he found 9 more
Japanese planes and shot them all down, too.
Noting that his fuel was getting low, he descended, circled the
carrier and came in for a perfect landing on the deck. He threw back
the canopy, climbed out and jogged over to the captain.
Saluting smartly he said, "Well sir, how did I do on my very first day?"
The captain replied, "You make one velly impoltant mistake!"
